This Could Take a Lifetime

I've been waiting at the Greyhound station
I've been trying to find someone like you
But I never do
I've been trying to change my patterns
So I could love someone like you
But I never do
And this could take a lifetime
To believe in something true
But I hope that's not what I do

You've been walking around these same sad circles
Trying to find someone to stand by you
Baby I have too
You've been trying to believe in someone
After all the things she did to you
You know I've been there too
And this could take a lifetime
To believe in something true
But I hope that's not what you do

And this could take a lifetime
To believe in someone as true
But I hope that's not what I do
